THE WEIGHING
by Jane Hirshfield

The heart’s reasons
seen clearly,
even the hardest
will carry
its whip-marks and sadness
and must be forgiven.

As the drought-starved
eland forgives
the drought-starved lion
who finally takes her,
enters willingly then
the life she cannot refuse,
and is lion, is fed,
and does not remember the other.

So few grains of happiness
measured against all the dark
and still the scales balance.

The world asks of us
only the strength we have and we give it.
Then it asks more, and we give it.

Restart 2020

This year just deserve a reanimation post... For my future self, if you see this, i wish that you will look back to this year with so much thankfulness. 2020 is full of unexpected events, settling down on a second job, Covid-19, home office, first 表白... and the list goes on and on...

Looking back at the past few months, the world has thus been changed, by a pandemic. Every country is fighting their own battles for more healthcare capacities, economy crisis begins to show its first sign, most people are experiencing something they never experience before, including me...

God has been faithful throughout the years, i was thrown into a pool of reality without knowing how to swim, but there i learn to swim... with some consequences on my health, but now i have moved on...

i have learned to help myself, be brave, learn to be resillient, trusting in what i have learned, the journey i have gone through with God, everything was not in vain, in difficult times, God prevails...There are far more important things in life - Jesus saves!
